Hello Friends! In this video, I review how to release the sternocleidomastoid muscle (aka the SCM). This muscle is a big and important muscle in the neck, especially when it comes to the range of motion and function of the neck. When the SCM is overused and when it becomes dysfunctional, it can lead to neck pain, jaw pain, and headaches.
If you can release the SCM successfully, you can help to release tension and fibrotic areas that have built up within this muscle which will, in turn, help to relieve symptoms of neck pan, jaw pain, and/or headaches. Please watch and enjoy! Feel free to reach out with any questions or comments.

This channel is all about TMJ disorders - what they are, how they manifest, what to do about them and how they relate to other issues that may be going unnoticed in the body such as tongue tie, sleep apnea, ADHD, and more! I will also be posting about being a dentist and a working mommy to two wonderful children. Thank you and I hope you enjoy my videos!

This is interesting. I've suffered with TMJD for 6 years. Tried all kinds of treatment. One time I tried low level laser therapy which wasn't achieving any results until the physiotherapist placed the laser wand onto the middle part of my SCM. A few seconds later I felt a release near my jaw joint, almost like a rope knot being untied. Immediately I could open my jaw much wider. Unfortunately it seized up again within a few hours, which may have been due to muscle memory.

Excellent--This lady who is certified in these techniques here in Fort Worth ( NT Heath Center ) told me how to position my thumb inside my upper mouth and used my index finger to pinch the muscle but I have a hard time finding the right place to place my thump inside my mouth and pinch. Every time I swallow, I feel pain in different degrees inside my ear which makes sense in ur video. Do u think her techniques is better or yours or to do they accomplish teh same result--yours looks easier. The lady at the health center is the only person I know who does what u do. I'm very poor aka indigent and medicare (77) so I get medicare coverage from her but dentist don't cover anything. I get real upset over the pain which makes things worse. I take Meloxicam (15mg) and 1/2 of a 500 mg of Robaxin at night. Your video was insightful and informative. Thanks

Can the SCM pain trigger if the lower jaw is little far backward then the upper jaw. I mean Overbite. This overbite occurred after a session of tooth removal from my upper jaw, 2 teeth were removed from front both sides and a transparent brace was installed inside the lower jaw. I think because i kept that bracket for too long without visiting my dentist that mis alignment happened. Then i threw away that brace.

I wish there was a way you could "grow" one side predictably but I don't know of one. You can shrink the muscle with a series of Botox injections, but there's no telling how much it will shrink so it may still end up uneven. As for which side to sleep on, it doesn't really matter.

Thanks for this. Really helped me a lot because I feel sore all the time around that area. I had a tmj dentist done a splint 3 years ago. I wore it for a month and it increased my dizziness so I stopped wearing it and stopped going to her because she said what I'm feeling is all in the mind :( Now I'm feeling worse. I have this spinning sensation that doesn't stop even if I lie down and muscle twitching all over my body. I have gone to different doctors as well. Had multiple tests done such as Brain Ct scan, MRI on the neck. Results are normal. I'm so confused now as to where else to go. Should I go back to a tmj specialist? Would you say that my symptoms are tmjd related? Thanks for your time.

Most of my facial pain happens about 1.5 hours after I sleep. I wake up and it is painful. Why is that?
@theTMJdoc
@theTMJdoc Год назад
Likely because we all tend to clench/grind our teeth with more force, more frequently and for a longer duration when we’re sleeping than when we’re awake.

Whichever makes it feel better. For some people, that's heat and for others it's cold :)

Can this muscle cause sharp ear pain?
@theTMJdoc
@theTMJdoc Год назад
Typically that comes from the lateral pterygoid or the deep masseter being in a dysfunctional state.

Quick question should we do any types of these massages (temporalis, masseter, pterygoid, scm, etc.) while in a closed lock without reduction? Say is it possible that releasing them in the wrong order can worsen the lock? Thank you Dr.!

Hi doc- TMJ sufferer here. About 2 years. It has been reduced a lot with night guard and I wear orthotics during the day. That brought it down 60%. Then chiropractor brought down the pain some more. I can’t seem to get over the hump though. Everyone talks about grinding and clenching especially unconsciously. I might be doing this, but don’t really catch myself doing this it all. I only have my TMJ on the right side. Do I have stress? Yeah. Can I do much about it? I think I’ve done what I can. I’m ready to accept that this will just be a part of me the rest of my life. But I’d like to make one more push somewhere to see what I can do. Live in Ohio so can’t exactly see you. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks!! Can general inflammation from diet be the true culprit of TMJ? Or do you think it’s more physiology. I could go on a extremely low inflammatory diet as a last ditch effort. Also, I’ve never had lock jaw. No weakness. No clicking. That just adds more confusion probably.

@@theTMJdoc Pain. Lots of pain after eating. Without guard I feel the need to move jaw side to side. The TMJ joint has cracked, like a knuckle. So really just pain. One of the weird symptoms is extra saliva coming from that side of the mouth. Scalloped tongue as well.
